Lying Down Directly After Botox, Is This Not Recommended?

I had Botox injections 2 days ago. I wasn't given post-care instructions. Immediately after the treatment (half an hour after) I had a massage, where I lay down for 2 hours. My face was NOT massaged. Two days later, I still have bumps (like mosquito bites) in each of the places where Botox was injected into my forehead. I now realize that some doctors recommend their patients not to lie down for 6 hours after. Will this effect go away soon? Did I do something wrong?
A: Botox and Post-Treatment Position?

No, I do not think you did anything wrong. Botox should be  injected directly into the muscles involved;  is hard to imagine (even theoretically) that position change after the treatment  will make a difference. I doubt that you will see any difference in the efficacy of the treatment you have received.

Best wishes.

Bruising After Botox, Is this Normal?

I had Botox injected saturday afternoon. Sunday morning I woke up with a red dot in the middle of my forehead and a few by my hair line. I have read that brusing is normal sometimes. The first time I had this done I had nothing. Its Monday night now and the dot has not gotten any better. is this just a broken blood vessel and how long w/it last? Besides that the botox so far looks good.
A: Bruising after Botox

Yes, bruising can occur after the use of Botox ( or any other injectable). It may take a few days to subside. Best wishes.
